A Guide To Understanding Your Migraines.

Distinguishing Between a Migraine and a Headache

Before we start talking about migraine pain it is important to understand the common misconception between headaches and migraines. These two terms are used interchangeably because they both may have one distinctive similarity: your head may hurt, but not all migraines come with pain in the head.

Headaches can happen for many reasons.

Tension headaches are the most common types of headaches that take place at the temple or back of the head. Over-the-counter pain-releasing medicines usually help treat the pain. Cluster headaches are stabbing pain inside the eyes, and they affect more men than women. Sinus headaches are headaches that take place when sinuses are inflamed, usually because there’s an infection.

Migraines, on the other hand, are caused by electrolyte imbalance as a result of an overstimulated brain. No two migraines are the same, everyone suffers different symptoms, so it is vital to understand your body and the signs that trigger a migraine.

Headaches

may only last for a very short time and have no other symptom associated with them. They are not as severe as migraines and don’t affect day-to-day activities.

Migraines

last anywhere from 4 hours to several days and have many symptoms, such as vomiting, dizziness, vertigo, and auras associated with them. In addition, migraines have prodromes(before migraine) and postdromes(after migraine).

Migraines are not at all like headaches.
